Error: couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1:27017 even though I am running mongod

MongoDB shell version v4.2.3
connecting to: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/?compressors=disabled&gssapiServiceName=mongodb
2020-05-02T19:00:36.477-0500 E  QUERY    [js] Error: couldn't connect to server 127.0.0.1:27017, connection attempt failed: SocketException: Error connecting to 127.0.0.1:27017 :: caused by :: Connection refused :

That is the error that I am getting after running Mongo and this is the response that I get after running mongod

Create a directory /data/db and give permission to the MongoDB user so that MongoDB can access it. To create the directory:

sudo mkdir -p /data/db

To change owner:

sudo chown -R $USER /data/db

It's obvious, that the MongoDB startup failed.

2020-05-02T19:00:34.310-0500 I STORAGE [initandlisten] exception in initAndListen: NonExistentPath: Data directory /data/db not found., terminating

That's why you can't connect it. Because it's never startup. You can try to fix the MongoDB startup issue, then try to log in through CMD to make sure it's ok.
